whats fake about it john ?
You pay for a Louis Vuitton made in Paris because you pay for a french "artisan" to stitch your bag. One that specializes in working w/ the leather...and that is all he does all day.
You don't pay for a Louis Vuitton made in the USA because it would've been crafted by a minimum wage worker at Walmart or a sweat shop in Chinatown.

mine, too.... hmm.... :si was thinking it was the wrong side... mine is on the right when you look at the bag.
... Back to topic, I would imagine that the earliest MC speedies were Made in France only. I believe that MC was meant to be a limited line but due to overwhelming popular demand they decided to keep it on as a permanent line. Once that was confirmed, then i'm sure they would have started production of MC in the USA factories as well.
The datecode of the bag would probably be the most helpful in determining it. For example, if you find a 2003 speedy when MC came out that says made in U.S.A. then that would be a problem!
As for the above listings, I would NOT trust the seller if fakes have been sold before. Although i'm not the expert authenticator, if John says it is fake then ummm... i'm gonna go with FAKE!
I think she was referring to the title question, if MC Speedys were made in the USA.
My black MC speedy from may of 04 was made in USA and it's 100% real! I am afraid it's gonna be hard to sell though due to the lack of widespread knowledge that LV is indeed made in the US too.
